Bullet Found At Old Saybrook Middle School

OLD SAYBROOK — A student found a .22-caliber bullet on the floor of the auditorium of Old Saybrook Middle School Wednesday, the town's police chief said.

The student gave the bullet to a teacher, who immediately alerted the school's associate principal, Chief Michael Spera said Thursday morning. The administrator gave the item to the school resource officer.

Spera ordered the school to be searched by the Connecticut State Police explosion-detecting police dogs to make sure there was no other ammunition or any guns in the building.
